// ObjectToStruct is converts any structure into JSON and then unmarshalls it into
|
|
// another structure.
|
|
//
|
|
// Teleport configuration uses this (strange, at first) trick to convert from one
|
|
// struct type to another, if their fields are loosely compatible via their `json` tags
|
|
//
|
|
// Example: assume you have two structs:
|
|
//
|
|
// type A struct {
|
|
// Name string `json:"name"`
|
|
// Age int `json:"age"`
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// type B struct {
|
|
// FullName string `json:"name"`
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// Now you can convert B to A:
|
|
//
|
|
// b := &B{ FullName: "Bob Dilan"}
|
|
// var a *A
|
|
// utils.ObjectToStruct(b, &a)
|
|
// fmt.Println(a.Name)
|
|
//
|
|
// > "Bob Dilan"
|
|
//
